"BANNING ATV'S, might as well buy a 2X4 ATV!!

It's almost a un-revrseable thing thats going on with the do's and don'ts and won'ts and you will-nots, of ATV's to come. Yes there are a lot of people out there that are abuseing the laws and wrecking it for the law following guys. But you do have to admit, the tree and weed huggers are expanding very rapidlly. They're agenda is to try and make people like us look at things the way they distortedly look at things. Pretty soon it will be bad enough that you can't ride in any ditch or any public land, Just like what they're doing to snowmobiling. NO MORE riding in federal parks, it seems we're terrifying the poor animals that are half to one mile away. Or we are killing the poor weeds in the ditches. So we might as well get 2 wheel drive atv's and ride back and forth in our own drive-ways, cuz if you have mud on your tires, you must have been some where you should'nt have. If we're going to ride in the ditch's, we should'nt ride in the same track that we see ahead of us, stagger your tails. JUST my 3 cents worth, sorry if I offended anyone!! :rolleyes"

Shadyzr, in the beginning, for a number of years, riders knew how to ride, since the recreation was new and basically unorganized. Now, MN has an association, over 50 ATV clubs and most people have found this to be a growing true family recreation.

Like any recreation that grows, there's going to be a number of people who do not like it. I'm not saying to sit and be quiet. I am saying, MANY MANY more people are now aware of what some will do to try and kill a recreation.

Now, not later, is the time to call your state and local representaives and be heard.

Be involved, join ATVAM and an ATV club (if you don't belong already), and spread the word to your buddies. Ride responsibly, more trails will be coming.

    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
